\n

Stepping out of a friend\u2019s car one Friday night, we noticed the adjacent lifted truck, and immediately disagreed on whether the lift kit and rims made the truck look any better<\/strong><\/h3>\n

\"shrunk-tires-truck\"Personally, I was in love with the 22\u201d rims and body lift, whereas she wasn\u2019t too sure about all the bells and whistles, claiming such modifications make a truck look tacky. We continued to debate whether it\u2019s possible to overdo a lift-kit or rims on a truck, but upon reaching our destination, the conversation ceased in favor of focusing on tearing up the dance floor. Nevertheless, the seed had been planted and I later found myself questioning whether or not it is possible to overdo a \u201cjacked-up\u201d truck. After a little internet search, I found some interesting things:<\/p>\n

Sometimes, it is possible to not have enough. This guy got the first part right, but c\u2019mon, how far can you really go on those itty bitty wheels? I think it\u2019s safe to say that when budgeting for a lift kit, don\u2019t forget about the new tires you\u2019ll need too. I\u2019m sure once he gets the right sized wheels, his Ford will take him far!<\/p>\n

\"pinktruck\"Next we have a ride for our Backwood Barbies. Clearly it is possible to have a pink Jeep with matching rims that looks just right. There\u2019s just enough country and class to put this Jeep on the top of most cowgirls wish-lists! Pretty in pink just got a whole new meaning.<\/p>\n

\"03369badcb9ede2a6ef5230a32b9ff62\"Maybe you\u2019re thinking it\u2019s just newer makes and models getting all the jacked-up attention, well think again. Here\u2019s old reliable rocking a new body lift and rims showing us that even the baby boomers are capable of keeping up with the millennials. It\u2019s like wearing your comfy old Wranglers with your new dance boots on a Friday night, git er done Grandpa!<\/p>\n

So far these rides have been pretty modest in appearance, and maybe you\u2019re thinking body lifts and rims aren\u2019t enough. Well how about adding a little bit of John Deere, some smokestacks, and a heavy duty towing anchor to the mix? Yes, yes, yes, to just the right amount of jacked up and work truck all in one. Repping your lifestyle even through the truck you drive isn\u2019t going overboard, it\u2019s simply being true to who you are and what you stand for.<\/p>\n

\"jacked-up-chevy-trucks-with-smoke-stacks-styles-300x200\"This is my favorite way to see and be seen in a truck, and I think even my friend would agree with how this truck has been treated just right. You\u2019ve got a little bit of lift to take you through the mud, some added suspension to keep the cold one from spilling, and tires that are perfect for leaving the beaten path. No need for shiny rims on this hard working Ford<\/p>\n

\"bigblackatcanyon-768x576\"I think what it boils down to is not seeing rims and lifts as going overboard, but as an expression of the person behind the wheel. For some of us it\u2019s not the first way we spend our hard earned dollars, but for others it\u2019s the only way.<\/p>\n

Whether you like \u2018em lifted so you can get a lil mud on the tires, or you like \u2018em lowered so you\u2019re feeling every pothole in the road, it\u2019s the American way to drive your truck looking any way you damn well please.<\/p>\n
